Upgrade Cisco IoT FND on OVA

Device Compatibility Check

This topic helps you check for the validated device versions that are compatible with Cisco IoT FND Release 5.0. The release versions mentioned in this topic are only the list of validated versions by Cisco IoT FND and not is exhaustive. We recommend you to upgrade your devices to these validated versions and is not a mandate.

  • FAR compatibility: See supported device types and versions on Cisco IoT FND Release Notes 5.0

  • HER compatibility: See supported device types and versions on Cisco IoT FND Release Notes 5.0

  • HSM compatibility: See upgrade hardware security module compatibility on Cisco IoT FND Release Notes 5.0

  • TPS compatibility: The TPS server version must match the Cisco IoT FND release version. For example, If you're upgrading to Cisco IoT FND Release 5.0 from Cisco IoT FND Release 4.12.1, your TPS server should be upgraded to Cisco IoT FND Release 5.0.

  • Cisco IoT FND compatibility: On initial installation, upgrade the OpenSSH package in the Cisco IoT FND server to RHEL version 8.8 and later versions.

Postgres DB status check

This task guides you in understanding your system status before you perform an upgrade.

Use the following steps to check your system status before proceeding to upgrade your Cisco IoT FND on OVA:

Before you begin

  • Take a snapshot of the existing VM before you upgrade.

  • Perform a backup of cgms.properties file and cgms_keystore file in the location, /opt/fnd/data/. You can either SCP these files to another server for backup or you can copy in the same or different folder. Here's an example: 
    root@iot-fnd:~[root@iot-fnd ~]# 
root@iot-fnd:~[root@iot-fnd ~]# cd /opt/fnd/data
root@iot-fnd:/opt/fnd/data[root@iot-fnd data]# 
root@iot-fnd:/opt/fnd/data[root@iot-fnd data]#ls 
cgms_keystore  cgms.properties  cisco-sudi-ca.pem  userPropertyTypes.xml
root@iot-fnd:/opt/fnd/data[root@iot-fnd data]# 
root@iot-fnd:/opt/fnd/data[root@iot-fnd data]# cp cgms.properties cgms.properties_backup_09May2025
[root@iot-fnd data]# keytool -importkeystore -srckeystore cgms_keystore -destkeystore cgms_keystore_backup_9May2022 -deststoretype PKCS12

Re-enter new password:
Enter source keystore password:
Entry for alias cgms successfully imported.
Entry for alias cisco_sudi successfully imported.
Entry for alias jmarconi successfully imported.
Import command completed:  3 entries successfully imported, 0 entries failed or cancelled
[root@iot-fnd data]#
[root@iot-fnd data]# ls
cgms_keystore                  cgms_keystore.selfsigned  cgms.properties_backup_09May2022  fnd_psk.keystore
cgms_keystore_backup_9May2025  cgms.properties           cisco-sudi-ca.pem                 userPropertyTypes.xml
[root@iot-fnd data]#

  • Ensure that the Postgres services are running before perfomring an upgrade.

Procedure

Step 1

Using the SSH terminal and navigate to the root directory.

Step 2

Run the following command:

You can view all the statuses of your Cisco IoT FND on OVA before proceeding with an upgrade.

Cisco IoT FND on OVA Upgrade Matrix

The following table provides a detailed overview of the versions of different software components bundled with each Cisco IoT FND release. It includes the version numbers for Postgres, Docker Server, and the Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) operating system associated with specific Cisco IoT FND releases.

Cisco IoT FND Version Postgres Version Docker Server Version RHEL OS Version
5.0.0 12.12 19.03.15 8.10
4.12.0 12.12 19.03.15 8.8
4.11.0 12.12 19.03.15 8.8
4.10.0 12.12 19.03.15 8.7
4.9.1 12.12 19.03.15 8.6
4.9.0 12.9 19.03.15 8.6

Upgrade Database and Docker Server Image

Use this section to upgrade the database and the docker server image. Run the rpm scripts and auto-integrate the DB with Cisco IoT FND scripts.

Before you begin

  • Cisco IoT FND OVA upgrade will not upgrade the RHEL OS version. The RHEL version differs for different versions of Cisco IoT FND. After upgrading the OVA, we recommend you to upgrade the OS sooner than later. Although Cisco IoT FND is a secure application, OS security and patches must be regularly updated in accordance to guidance from Cisco.

  • Use the following procedure to upgrade from Cisco IoT FND Release 4.9.x, 4.10.x, 4.11.x, and 4.12.x versions to Cisco IoT FND Release 5.0.x

Procedure

Step 1

Obtain the Cisco IoT FND upgrade scripts from Cisco.

Step 2

Check the RHEL OS version before upgrading Cisco IoT FND OVA to Cisco IoT FND Release 5.0 or higher.

Example:

[root@fnd451testupgrade ~]# hostnamectl
   Static hostname: fnd451testupgrade
         Icon name: computer-vm
           Chassis: vm
        Machine ID: 58eb8d728d834d28ad426eca3c9b9c4e
           Boot ID: 40511dab9f4b4beaa8de82fb105423c9
    Virtualization: vmware
  Operating System: Red Hat Enterprise Linux
       CPE OS Name: cpe:/o:redhat:enterprise_linux:7.5:GA:server
            Kernel: Linux 3.10.0-862.el7.x86_64
      Architecture: x86-64
[root@fnd451testupgrade ~]#r

Step 3

Extract the cgms rpms files to the Cisco IoT FND server.

Example:

If you are upgrading the DB and the docker server image for Cisco IoT FND release 5.0:

  1. Download the following upgrade script from Cisco.

    CISCO-IOTFND-VPI-K9-UPGRADE-SCRIPTS-5.0-101.zip

  2. Extract the file to get the rpm:

    upgrade-ova-5.0-101.rpm

  3. Transfer the extracted rpm file to the Cisco IoT FND server.

Step 4

Navigate to the directory where the rpm file is located.

Example:

cd /opt or any directory where the upgrade-ova-5.0-101.rpm file is copied.

Step 5

Run the following upgrade script:

Example:

rpm -Uvh upgrade-ova-<release>-<build number>.rpm
root@iot-fnd:/opt[root@iot-fnd opt]# rpm -Uvh upgrade-ova-5-0-2-8.rpm
